Bandekar Brothers Private ... vs Assistant Commissioner Of Income Tax, ... on 11 February, 2026
31. We have given a thoughtful consideration to
catena of judicial precedents relied upon by the
appellant company and found them distinguishable
greatly hence inapplicable to the facts &
circumstances of the present case. We say so
because, in 'CIT Vs Cinceita (P) Ltd.' (supra) the case
was that the assessee leased entire floor of a
standalone building and the expenditure was incurred
in drawing up & registration of valid lease deed. The
expenditure so incurred was treated as legal
expenditure thus held as 'revenue'.
